Anzoátegui has shown remarkable growth, with an 86% increase in the fishing sector this year, significantly outperforming the national average of 3% to 5%, an achievement is attributed to the dedication and hard work of local producers.

The economic development in Anzoátegui extends beyond the petroleum industry, diversifying into sectors such as livestock, agriculture, and fishing. This diversification is crucial for the state’s productive economy.

Rodríguez emphasized that the primary goal of these productive policies is to improve the living conditions of the working class, rather than focusing solely on macroeconomic statistics. “The most important thing is not the number. It’s the impact it can have on your lives, on the income of workers, and on the benefits for families,” she stated.

In addition to her visit to the fish processing plant, Rodríguez’s agenda included the opening of an integral care center for children with autism and neurodiversity, and a recreational space for the elderly people.
